How to use

Choose the touch technology that fits your application (multi-touch PCAP for tablet-like multi-touch, single-touch SAW or resistive for specific use cases). Connect video, power and touch interface cables according to the Elo installation manual, install the appropriate drivers and configure touch settings in the host system for optimal performance.

Recommendations

For sealed installations, use the projected capacitive (PCAP) model and follow Elo’s enclosure sealing instructions to achieve an IP65-rated front. Use Elo drivers and perform life-testing validation in your final enclosure to ensure long-term reliability and accurate touch response.
